Hi Guys, i just received my QC of my 116610LV HULK from VSF by Jtime...
*** Mod edit: QC rules!

Is the magnifying glass straight and parallel in your eyes?

And i also think that there is a scratch on the end of the minute hands?

What about the SEL?

scratched minute hand from picture 2 or is this just kind of a reflection from the glass?

Man, how about you just ask TD? He has the watch in hands and can answer this question. By the way: you buy for 500 not for 18'000 - do please be aware that you get a replica...it seems you arent..

I don't think there's any reason to be hostile and rude, is there? IMO this forum is about helping/ supporting each other here. All love for me here, if you ask me...

mmm... ok thanks.
what factory make could be better? Clean?
@powerdrome I ordered the VSF as you can see, because i like the quality of the magnifying glass better and VSF has right case and crown guards, so overall better shape than clean factory. And as far is i know and read, they also use the same insert/inlay from clean itself... Also a bit more in the price than clean which should also have a certain reason to it... hope that helps

I did not mean to be rude, sorry. I just think that nonone here can say if its a lightning / photo peoblem or really a scratch. I would ask Lana to check and eventually make picture from another angle to ensure there is no scratch.

To be fair he posted a sh!t ton of QCs on your review thread so I think your first response was warranted.

Clearly you didn’t read the rules regarding QC, although that doesn’t surprise me…..

You're perusing QC leeway, you don't need that many pics for the questions you made. 3 questions is about enough, no more.

Thanks for the fantastic review. Hope the LN is on the same level once I decide to pull the trigger.
I just got one from Clean via Leather Makers in London the end of November and it's everything he said it is. I straight up told some people it was a knock off and they didn't believe me. Why argue 😉
